My father exposed me to music early. I was around it steady from about 14 forward. The summer between 8th and 9th grades Dad's brother gave me a proper introduction to the 5 string. Later that summer I saw the great Bill Monroe at Lakeland in Memphis and haven't been the same since. Dad bought me a banjo and arranged for some lessons with super-picker Randal Morton. I was progressing nicely when the rock-n-roll thing happened in my late teens. In my 20s I played electric guitar and rock. I still listened to bluegrass occasionally but had little interest in getting back into it. Then, halfway through my 47th year on the planet, the long dormant banjo bug came out of remission.
